its an imperfect world and politics is a dirty squalid human affair..

better a less than trustworthy 'new-labour' prime minister
than a truly despicable tory..

anyday..

trouble with 'highly principled' protest/non voting ..

is..

its not just one vote less in favour of Blair and his cronies..

its more importanly one vote less against

the truly vile and corrupt tories regaining [absolute ???] power..


BTW.. as if a prime minister from any other party
could have stood up succesfully against the power of the US
and not been 'persuaded' to take UK into Iraq war..


i dont like blair.. been suspicious of him since day 1..

dont respect him for imposing his 'vision' on the labour party
and what he's failed to achieve for my ' class & community '

.. but any labour party.. no matter how emasculated
is preferable to letting the tories back in through electorial negligence..
to inflict their mean spiefull wickedness on the population of our UK
